Standard vs Residential Refrigerator
We are considering a new 5th wheel Rv and the one we are looking has the big residential refrigerator with ice maker and water in the door. I have many questions that I can't seem to get answere...

We just purchased an all electric coach and it has a residential fridge. There are 8 "golf cart" house batteries on board. We've had the fridge running for 3 days in 90* weather and still had plenty of battery. I was skeptical of a residential fridge at first but I'm a card carrying fan now!
Ours has a water filter under the sink which filters water for the fridge and a separate water faucet in the sink. When we changed the filter, quite a bit of water ran out of the line. I think most of that must have been the water in the line to the ice maker.
The other thought would be to run fresh water through the fridge and toss the first couple of batches of ice. Can you get the manual for the fridge and see what it says about storing for an extended time?
